Last night, a would-be carjacker attempted to purloin a police vehicle from a cop. When he realized he had crapped the catbird seat, the crook pretended to be a Hollywood hotshot. Explains WPXI:

Micah Calamosca, 21, opened the passenger side door of an unmarked police car and sat down inside.

He told the driver to get out of the car because he was planning on taking it. Calamosca did not realize he was talking to a police officer.

The driver, plainclothes Detective Robert DiGiacomo [...] exited the vehicle, to put some space between himself and Calamosca, then drew his weapon and ordered Calamosca out of the vehicle at gun point.

According to the criminal complaint, Calamosca told the detective that he was an actor working for the Batman movie that was being filmed in the area and his actions were just part of the script.
